Orange County Toxic Exposure Lawyer

Exposed to toxic chemicals? Turn to Cohn & Swartzon, P.C.

With the seemingly endless amount of chemicals introduced to the market
on a daily basis, toxic exposure is becoming a common problem in California.
At the workplace, we trust that our health and safety is being protected
by the responsible parties, like our employers. Tragically, our firm has
seen many individuals suffering terrible illnesses, conditions or
death due to toxic exposure from the workplace.

Determining Liability for Toxic Exposure in the Workplace

If you or a loved one has been exposed to injurious chemicals in the workplace,
it is in your best interests to speak with an Orange County injury lawyer
that has an extensive background in
workplace accidents, including chemical and toxic exposure. When negligent business owners
and employers decide to use toxic cleaning solvent, lubricants, degreasers,
dyes, or paint removers when safer alternatives may be available,
they can be held liable for the injury of their employees.

Many individuals that were exposed to asbestos through the workplace decades
ago are now suffering from
mesothelioma. This horrible disease is brought about solely through asbestos exposure.
Although there is no amount of money that can make up for losing your
loved one or the tragedy of a serious or fatal illness or condition, we
have helped many families recover financially from workplace accidents
with the finances available to move forward, and to seek the best treatments
available.

Seeking Compensation for a Chemical Burn

Chemical burns can occur when in the workplace when workers are exposed
to corrosive substances such as acids, solvents, bases and oxidizers.
Chemical burns are one of the most painful types of injuries that exist.
When serious damage has been done to the skin, the victim may then have
to undergo endless surgeries and grafts in an effort to repair the damage.

If you believe that you may be suffering from a chemical burn due to the
negligence of an employer, business owner or defective product, it is
important for you to contact an attorney today. In many cases, the damage
from chemical burns may not fully manifest for some time. It is important
to seek immediate medical care if you believe you're suffering from a
chemical burn or exposure.

Some of the most common symptoms of chemical burns include:

Severe pain

Rashes

Blisters

Blue or red areas of skin

The financial and emotional burdens that can accompany serious workplace
injuries can include hospital bills, physical therapy, lost wages, and
a loss of earning capability. Worker's compensation is often not enough
coverage to pay for the actual costs that you may incur for your injury.
